This volume contains seventeen papers that were presented at the 2015 Annual Meeting of the Canadian Society for History and Philosophy of Mathematics/La Soci?t? Canadienne d’Histoire et de Philosophie des Math?matiques, held in Washington, D.C. In addition to showcasing rigorously reviewed modern scholarship on an interesting variety of general topics in the history and philosophy of mathematics, this meeting also honored the memories of Jacqueline (Jackie) Stedall and Ivor Grattan-Guinness; celebrated the Centennial of the Mathematical Association of America; and considered the importance of mathematical communities in a special session. These themes and many others are explored in these collected papers, which cover subjects such as
New evidence that the Latin translation of Euclid’s Elements was based on the Arabic version attributed to al-?ajj?jWork done on the arc rampant in the seventeenth century The history of numerical methods for finding roots of nonlinear equationsAn original play featuring a dialogue between George Boole and Augustus De Morgan that explores the relationship between themKey issues in the digital preservation of mathematical material for future generationsA look at the first twenty-five years of The American Mathematical Monthly in the context of the evolving American mathematical communityThe growth of Math Circles and the unique ways they are being implemented in the United States
Written by leading scholars in the field, these papers will be accessible to not only mathematicians and students of the history and philosophy of mathematics, but also anyone with a general interest in mathematics.

Описание: This volume contains thirteen papers that were presented at the 2014 Annual Meeting of the Canadian Society for History and Philosophy of Mathematics/La Soci t Canadienne d'Histoire et de Philosophie des Math matiques, held on the campus of Brock University in St. Catharines, Ontario, Canada. It contains rigorously reviewed modern scholarship on general topics in the history and philosophy of mathematics, as well as on the meeting's special topic, Early Scientific Computation. These papers cover subjects such as -Physical tools used by mathematicians in the seventeenth century -The first historical appearance of the game-theoretical concept of mixed-strategy equilibrium -George Washington's mathematical cyphering books -The development of the Venn diagram -The role of Euler and other mathematicians in the development of algebraic analysis -Arthur Cayley and Alfred Kempe's influence on Charles Peirce's diagrammatic logic -The influence publishers had on the development of mathematical pedagogy in the nineteenth century -A description of the 1924 International Mathematical Congress held in Toronto, told in the form of a "narrated slide show" Written by leading scholars in the field, these papers will be accessible to not only mathematicians and students of the history and philosophy of mathematics, but also anyone with a general interest in mathematics.
Описание: This book constitutes the second volume of interviews with prominent mathematicians and mathematical scientists invited to the Institute for Mathematical Sciences, National University of Singapore. First published in the Institute's newsletter Imprints during the period 2010-2019, they offer glimpses of an esoteric universe as viewed and experienced by some of the world's most active and creative practitioners of the craft of mathematics.The topics covered in this volume are wide-ranging, running from pure mathematics (logic, number theory, algebraic geometry) to applied mathematics (mathematical modeling, fluid dynamics) through probability and statistics, mathematical physics, theoretical computer science and financial mathematics. This eclectic mix of the abstract and the concrete should interest those who are enthralled by the mystique and power of mathematics, whether they are students, researchers or the non-specialists.By briefly tracing the paths traveled by the pioneers of different national backgrounds, the interviews attempt to put a cultural face to an intellectual endeavor that is often perceived as dry and austere by the uninitiated. They should also interest those who are intrigued by the influence of the environment on the creative spirit, and, in particular, those who are interested in the psychology and history of ideas.

Описание:
This volume contains fourteen papers that were presented at the 2016 Annual Meeting of the Canadian Society for History and Philosophy of Mathematics/La Soci t Canadienne d'Histoire et de Philosophie des Math matiques, held at the University of Calgary in Alberta, Canada.
In addition to showcasing rigorously reviewed modern scholarship on an interesting variety of topics in the history and philosophy of mathematics, this meeting also honored the life and work of the logician and philosopher of mathematics Aldo Antonelli (1962-2015). The first four papers in this book are part of that remembrance and have a philosophical focus. Included in these are a discussion of Bolzano's objections to Kant's philosophy of mathematics and an examination of the influence of rhetorical and poetic aesthetics on the development of symbols in the 16th and 17th Centuries. The remaining papers deal with the history of mathematics and cover such subjects as
Early schemes for polar ordinates in the work of L'H pital, based on lessons given to him by Bernoulli
A method devised by Euler for determining if a number is a sum of two squares
Playfair's Axiom and what it reveals about the history of 19th-Century mathematics education
The modern library classification system for mathematical subjects
An exploration of various examples of sundials throughout Paris
Written by leading scholars in the field, these papers are accessible to not only mathematicians and students of the history and philosophy of mathematics, but also anyone with a general interest in mathematics.

Описание:
This volume contains ten papers that have been collected by the Canadian Society for History and Philosophy of Mathematics/Soci t canadienne d'histoire et de philosophie des math matiques. It showcases rigorously-reviewed contemporary scholarship on an interesting variety of topics in the history and philosophy of mathematics from the seventeenth century to the modern era.
The volume begins with an exposition of the life and work of Professor Boleslaw Sobociński. It then moves on to cover a collection of topics about twentieth-century philosophy of mathematics, including Fred Sommers's creation of Traditional Formal Logic and Alexander Grothendieck's work as a starting point for discussing analogies between commutative algebra and algebraic geometry. Continuing the focus on the philosophy of mathematics, the next selections discuss the mathematization of biology and address the study of numerical cognition. The volume then moves to discussing various aspects of mathematics education, including Charles Davies's early book on the teaching of mathematics and the use of Gaussian Lemniscates in the classroom. A collection of papers on the history of mathematics in the nineteenth century closes out the volume, presenting a discussion of Gauss's "Allgemeine Theorie des Erdmagnetismus" and a comparison of the geometric works of Desargues and La Hire.
Written by leading scholars in the field, these papers are accessible not only to mathematicians and students of the history and philosophy of mathematics, but also to anyone with a general interest in mathematics.
